SUMMARY: Harrison County leaders are taking steps to reopen the parking garage at the courthouse, which has been closed since November 2024 after parts of the concrete were found to be crumbling. Bids are now being accepted to address structural issues within the garage. County Engineer Jaclyn Turner emphasized that while the structure is not in critical condition, it remains closed to prevent any potential damage. Turner remains optimistic that the garage could be reopened next year. She noted that repairs have been discussed for years and expressed determination to ensure the work is finally completed.
